Forgot a bunch of steps, measurements, and a lot of the little things but came out pretty decently.

Love the cheese rind sticking out of the sauce.

The meatballs look great.

Some notes: Spicy Italian sausage was on sale but lamb was 50% off so I couldn’t help adding it in so these aren’t technically Italian meatballs. Used 90% lean beef to try and balance it out but if anyone has suggestions of ratios with leaner meats I’d appreciate them.
If you like adding a bit of heat I’d recommend frying off your chilis and chili flakes with your garlic. You can probably tell I forgot to fry the flakes.
Also if you’re using canned tomatoes adding carrot helps remove some of the “canned” flavor.
My sous chef wasn’t much help, he just kept complaining about being hungry.
Sauce: Head of garlic 5 Birds Eye chilis Red pepper flakes 1 onion 1 tube of concentrated tomato paste Cab Sauv to taste 2 cans of tomatoes Rind of Parm Cook uncovered
